netmed workers
I tested for the company called Net Med Transcription and was just wondering if anyone out there works for them and if they like, dislike them?
Employees now, now workers comp needed...nm
nm
any QT workers

frequent this board. How is pay, benefits, work load. Still owned by Tampa couple?


 


MDI-MD workers, can you tell me
if they accept dial-up connections or satellite?  Don't find it on their website. thanks.
NetMed
No, they do not charge rental for equipment. 
NetMed
Anyone have any information regarding NetMed out of Cadillac, Michigan. Thanks.
Netmed

There have been good comments on the boards about them, and they have only IC positions.  That's all I know..


NetMed?
any info on them? Much appreciated.
NetMed
The pay is not that good, 7.5 cpl the last I knew. You have to train in Cadillac, Michigan if you live in Michigan. Don't know if they hire out of state, last I knew they didn't.
Netmed
Yes, IC  and pay is on time, or at least was.
NetMed
Yes, I have heard of them.
Netmed
I worked for NetMed for a short time. Unfortunately I was looking for part-time work and it just wasn't working out (too hard to keep up with two full time jobs). Everyone in the company seemed very nice and I never had a problem with getting paid. I wish things would have worked out, I really enjoyed working for NetMed the short time I did.
NetMed
Did anyone apply for the hem/onc opening for this company?  If so, have you heard back from them.  I immediately sent them my resume (have over 10 years MT exp.) but have heard nothing back.  Curious to know if anyone else has heard back.  Thanks for sharing.
NetMed
I applied. Not really looking for work, but I do Hem/Onc and was interested in seeing what the pay scale was. No reply as of yet.
NetMed
Here is the ad: NetMed Transcription has an immediate need for 2 MT's that have experience in Hematology/Oncology. All english speeking doctors. Sofware provided.

I see no mention of 8 cents per line.
NetMed
Has anyone applied to this company that has an ad on Job Board?  It says to send them an email...no email addy is listed with posting so I went on Google and searched for the company, sent my resume directly to them (or so I thought) then a few minutes later I get an email that says it is an undeliverable address!  What's up with that?  How are we supposed to send a resume when that happens?  Is it a legitimate ad or not?????
NetMed
Actually, I did send my resume where it says Apply but I always like to send it via email as well because so many companies state they sometimes do not receive the ones sent via the site.
NetMed
The e-mail address on my previous post does not work.
regarding NetMed
I work for NetMed. Plenty of work. Flexible. You are assigned your own doctors. Work is due in 24 hours from the time it goes into your cue.
Workers' Comp, IC @ MQ
Have any IC's ever filed a WC claim against MQ? If so, what was the course and/or outcome?
They are looking for workers -- but NO WORK

First of all, the auto workers SM

have been protected from the realities of the world for decades now.  I have contact with them daily-you should hear them cry and complain over having to pay $4 a pay period to cover their family's health insurance.  Co-pay for a Rx went up from $2 to $5?  Oh, the complaining about what a raw deal they get.


These people all have cottages to summer in, multiple vehicles for business, leisure and sports and the rest of us have slaved.  No company EVER promised to take care of its employees for life.  We MTs have known that for years and now these people also can find this out.


To All happy IC workers..
Are you satisfied as an IC and not having benefits because you have another job that pays benefits or are dependents of someone how has medical benefits?
I think that off-shore workers

You just summed that up for me.  I am glad you told the truth in that you like using slaves to transcribe who are none the wiser. 


As an IC, I choose my own hours, days, lines, etc.  You as an MTSO consider that whining, when it is the law. 


So if you sleep at night knowing you are abusing and mistreating offshore workers, then good for you!  It actually just proves you have no heart.


Another point I'd like to make is that if you need subs to make you money, you must be a horrible Transcriptionist yourself. 


Any doctor that old me he doesn't care who types, when, and how would be off of my list of good doctors and I wouldn't waste my time.  That doctor obviously doesn't care about people but only his own pocket and that would include you as the MTSO.  That same doctor that told you he/she doesn't care will drop you as an MTSO in a minute when he/she finds a better deal.


Always remember, we reap what we sow.  Try and have a good day, master!


Any Oracle workers here?
Am I the only one at Oracle (OTI) that constantly and consistently runs out of work? I'm not just talking about the usual holiday lull, I mean pretty much everyday? Because I do. I don't think I've had a paycheck yet that's been over 400 dollars. I'm on three accounts (count em '3') and there's still hardly ever enough work. I keep asking my QA ppl to put me on yet another account and they say there aren't anymore openings but then I get emails from them saying how the workload is heavy in this account, heavy in that account... etc.

Why why why is this so hard? Any advice? Anybody?

My request for workers
Apparently all of you who are so disgusted with my posting are so busy that you have time to be on this chat board. I, am quite busy and do not have time to filter through hundreds of resumes, which I have received in the past from a posting. Therefore I was upfront and honest about what I needed and what I would pay. NO, this is not subcontracted work, this is a full fledged hospital account, if it is any of your business. Spend time working not running other people down that you know nothing about.
C&C Transcription does pay it's workers
Please don't confuse CC Transcription with C&C Transcription, they are two totally separate companies. Also C&C Transcription does NOT offer direct deposit.

Marie
It's just one more way of cheating workers.

NetMed in MI? Very few comments here. sm
I'm checking out a handful of companies. Don't need health insurance, but trying to find a good match with full time M-F work, preferably assigned accounts. 20+ years MT experience. Love the small company I presently work for, but not quite enough work for me (I have really high line counts some days, but other days are terrible with shortage of work) Unfortunately, the docs from the teaching hospitals have a very inconsistent dictation load, and my income is being affected by this, thus I am pursuing a different company. Thanks for any input.

Anyone heard of NetMed and how are they?

NetMed Transcription

I run NetMed and I am just trying to find out what the opinion out there is our the company.  We have never missed paying an invoice to an MT and all the MT's are US based.  Please let me know if you have heard anything positive or negative.


Thanks


I worked at NetMed for a while too. sm
I worked there for maybe 2 months but it just did not work out. The people there were very nice and I never had a problem with being paid. If I had computer problems, there was always somebody who would call back right away. They also have a mentoring program too. But I thought they used Vianetta or something like that. Either way, I enjoyed working for them. I would recommend them to anybody.
any info on NetMed?
Can't find much about it.  Thanks!
Is anyone familiar with NetMed?
I am trying to find out if anyone knows anything about NetMed.  Are they US based?  Good or bad experience, etc.  Thanks
Any Freedom Type workers here? - sm

I've heard nice things, read nice things.  Do you like working here?  Do you enjoy the work?  Set your own hours and workload?


 


TIA!


I think it is great to get to know more of our "co-workers". (sm)
My elderly mom lives with me, my grandchildren are here before and after school and I go to Wal-Mart and Price Chopper a couple of times a week. That is it for me. I love the idea of getting to know some of my fellow workers. Winter is an extremely crafty season, hopefully will find others with similar interests.




Workers of the World, Unite!
I agree 100%. They accuse John Edwards of engaging in class warfare, and I say why not? The time has come to put an end to all this ugliness. Golden country, indeed.
I'd have to agree with you. Yes, you get a few disgruntled workers who probably
aren't qualified to be doing this work and get reprimanded or just plain unhappy and like to complain, then think twice about their opinion on a company, but for God's sake when people tell you that they aren't not getting paid on time, correct, or AT ALL, why in the world would you consider even taking a job for them.  I agree with the poster in that it does reach a level of stupidity and companies that have those kind of unethic and dishonest tactics just prey on stupid people who should have known better to begin with. I think everyone has a right to voice their opinion and experience, good or bad, and yes, some of it take with a grain of salt BUT if it involves your livelihood, a paycheck, then pay attention. I just don't get people either. Here's your sign   
SINCE WHEN IS EXPLOITATION OF WORKERS PROPRIETARY?..sm

I don't think anybody's wrath is directed at workers
For the most part, it seems the barbs are going right where they belong- at management. The closest anyone has come to faulting the Indian workers themselves is the wage that they make, which they have no control over anymore than we do.
10 reports per hour for QA workers???
Is it reasonable for an MTSO to expect QA to QA 10 reports per hour....when working on several acute care accounts? For the most part it is blanks only, but sometimes there are also full listens.

NetMed must have changed a lot in 5 years. sm
I worked for them for 3-4 months. We were not a good fit for each other. I was having a hard time meeting QA. That said, I thought they were good to work for. They bent over backwards to help me get with the program. I never had any trouble with getting help for any problems and the tech people were great at getting back to you with answers. My mentor gal was great too.

But that was just my experience.
